This is the third year of the ‘Wine & Food Festival of New Paltz’, the brainchild of well known and popular wine educator, Kevin Zraly and wine and spirits importer, Sam Ramic,

Add a staff of dedicated volunteers and wine judges from the International Wine Masters and you have a the makings of the premier New York state wine event. Why not make the event accessible to Manhattan, only 90 miles away and showcase the ‘Wine & Food Festival of New Paltz’ at the showplace of American historical hotels, the Mohonk Mountain House?

Why not invite the leaders of the wine and food industry to show their goods, hold seminars, create wine dinners, raise money for Cystic Fibrosis with a silent auction and stage celebrity chef demonstrations.?

After a year of planning, on Friday, April 22nd, the ‘Wine & Food Festival of New Paltz’ will begin year three on the road of becoming the next major wine and food festival in America.

Visit the festival’s website, www.InternationalWineMasters.com for the complete schedule. The event will take place from Friday, April 22nd through Sunday, April 24th.

If you have not visited the Mohonk Mountain House, the spectacular retreat will knock your socks off. The Victorian castle was built in 1869 on cliffs above Lake Mohonk. The result is a European style hotel lodged in the scenic Hudson Valley of New York. Overnight reservations for the Mohonk Mountain House can be made by calling 888-976-0785
